Floor Jansen & RLSQ - Energize Me [Live @ Podium: Uitmarkt, 2009]

Floor Jansen and the Red Limo String Quartet are interviewed and play "Energize Me" by After Forever in TV show "Podium: Uitmarkt" on August 30, 2009

As requested, translation of the questions to Floor:

Q: It's a completely different world than the quartet isn't it?
Floor answers: Yes, but somewhere we meet in the classical arrangements in our music. It's heavy guitars, double bass, but I sing both pop and opera and our music contains a lot of classical arrangements. And therefore it was kind of a logical step to the Red Limo String Quartet.

Q: And it's not being amplified, that must be different for you.
Floor answers: Yes and no. I have done many different things, also outside of After Forever. Singing acousticly is not unfamiliar to me. But this setting is different, and the fun part is that you can add some nuances.

Lucky you! I've been to a Floor & RLSQ show last year, sadly I can't go this time.

[MellonVegan]

@siropheliac She is famous among the right people ;)

But I know what you mean.

[Meriliniel]

I really hope she recovers well. It would be such a shame if she had any kind of fall-back with her burn-out-syndrome :(

Mooi trouwens om te zien hoe de mensen reageren (bewegingen) als ze begint met zingen. Dat kun je zien vanaf 2:14. Mensen die het duidelijk mooi vinden!
